I think consumers do care when they have to throw away a device or pay for a repair because the battery health has significantly degraded. This is really similar to the argument against having a standardized charging port or requiring usb-c charge ports for cellphones.

Yeah, I agree. Also, there's little evidence that consumers really care about this. Batteries last a long time now.
